Draghicesco în America

Carmen Hendershott:

George:
This e-mail contains the references I found on Dimitrie Draghicesco. I am sorry
I have taken a month to respond to your request, but it took a lot more than a
few clicks to get them. I have also obtained print-outs (photocopies) of the
articles cited, except for the one by W. Paul Vogt, which really is not on your
topic. Please let me know if you want me to scan the copies to you (I am not
sure if you receive scans.), or if, failing that, you want them mailed to you.
If you want them mailed, send me the full address to which they should go.

Publications by and about
Dimitrie Draghicesco:

Note: I checked several major
indexing and abstracting databases for various disciplines. Most citations in
these databases were in French. Possibly, French-language databases would show
additional citations, but this is what showed up in the English-language ones
to which I have access.

Hershey, John H. “God, Man,
and Dimitrie Draghicesco.” In: Humanist (Buffalo,
New York) (Published by The American Ethical Union) v.13 January 1, 1953, pp.267-270. Note: This
is the only full-length article actually devoted to Draghicesco that I found.
Most of what is out there are book reviews and/or summaries.

Mead, George Herbert. Review
of a book and a brochure by Dimitrie Draghicesco. The book is Du Rôle de
l’Individu dans le Déterminisme Social (Paris: Félix Alcan, 1904. The brochure is Le
Problème du Déterminisme biologique et Déterminisme sociale (Paris: Editions de
la Grande France, 1903). These reviews appear together in Psychological
Bulletin v.2 (12) 1905 December, pp.399-405. Note: George Herbert Mead is a
major social scientist and philosopher in the United States; it is noteworthy
that writings by Draghicesco could attract reviews from a scholar of Mead’s
importance.

Vogt, W. Paul. “Identifying
Scholarly and Intellectual Communities: A Note on French Philosophy 1900-1939.”
In: History and Theory v.21 (2) 1982, pp.267-278. Again,
Draghicenso is mentioned incidentally in an article that does a contributor
analysis of two core French philosophy journals, Revue Philosophique and
Revue de Métaphysique et de Morale. Draghicesco is listed on p.277
as a contributor to the former journal but not as a contributor to the latter
one.
